Fantasy Impact:

If there is a positive in this it's the fact that Encarnacion has plenty of time to get game-ready before Opening Day. He is one of the league's premier power hitters and is expected to put up another 30+ home run and 100+ RBI campaign. Encarnacion should command a selection in the late-1st to early-2nd rounds.
